Hi there.
I am buying a Chromebook for the very first time at the end of the month. I also happen to have an iPhone 5C. Now, am i correct in saying that (after my minimum research) there is no direct way to transfer music files (.mp3) to an iPhone via a Chromebook am i correct?
My question is: are there workarounds in syncing my songs (or via iTunes) to my iPhone using a Chromebook?
Just thought i'd ask here.
Please advice. Thanks.
iPhone 5c, iOS 7.0.4
Why don't you just use Google Play? If you're buying a Chromebook it means that you'll have a Google account to be able to use the laptop or desktop. So why don't use the products that Google is offering by having a Google account?
I use an iphone 6s with a Samsung Chromebook. In the Web Store there's an app that takes you straight to iCloud where you log in with your Apple ID. You can upload and download anything from and to your Chromebook. You can also use iCloud Apps in the browser to create spreadsheets, documents notes, contacts, calender entries, etc. I have pinned the app icon to the task bar and use it just like any other app.
Another way to use an iphone with a chromebook is to use Google apps on your iPhone. Anything in those Apps is available immediately on your Chromebook. I also have a Macbook and I find that the synching of files is faster and easier by using Google apps.
This has been plaguing my new red iPhone 7 for the last week and driving me crazy! When the problem wasn't fixed with 10.1 on Monday, I got really frustrated. BUT I was able to fix the issue with this article:

Basically, there's an iTunes syncing bug that gets crabby if you have any duplicate songs in your library. It even shows the same grayed out songs that jg8539 posted that I had, too. It was an easy fix!! I didn't need to buy the program the poster mentioned, though. Show Duplicates did the trick for me.
Hope this helps!!
What is the app called? i have a chromebook too and im trying to transfer music to my iphone
Sorry, no. iTunes is not supported on Chromebook. But, read here:
Seen that video but it actually is suggsting that you must have another computer (PC or a Mac) to do it.
You can use Google Play Music to upload music from your chromebook to iPhone. Upload your music to Google Play Music on your chromebook. Install the Google Play Music app on your phone from the app store, and download the music for offline listening.
I'm sure that still works for people that option is available to. However Google Play Music is no longer a free service. Any other tips or ways to do this you can suggest would be greatly appreciated should they exist.
